Aigle Noir

A SLAP IN THE FACE TO THE LEATHER AND FETISH COMMUNITY

PURE FUCKING BLASPHAMY....I'm part of a strong leather community across North America that has come down for the last twenty years to Montreal and would end up at the Aigle Noir for our events, this new owner essentially spit on everything we've worked hard to associate and establish with the bar for two decades by turning into a yuppie hangout overnight and disrespecting the name AIGLE NOIR/BLACK EAGLE a traditional name for Gay Leather Bars situated worldwide. I would strongly recommend that the leather community petition to have the name changed and not step foot in the place at the same time. It's a shame that no one IN THE LEATHER SCENE was offered an opportunity to take the bar over FIRST BEFORE THE YUPPIFICATION destroyed twenty years of history, culture and tradition. Not pleased at all.

THIS ISN'T THE AIGLE NOIR ANYMORE

THE AIGLE NOIR HAS NOW BEEN GENTRIFIED BY THE NEW OWNER. Here's what happens when a classic LEATHER BAR is sold to a new owner that just doesn't get it. It looses it's identity and appeal and alienates the previous twenty five years of clientelle. I walked into the Aigle Noir last weekend and could barely recognize the place the interior has changed from a TRUE LEATHERBAR (Dark, foreboding, masculine and clandestine) into an urban modern designed, BRIGHTLY LIT, douchebag hang out consisting mainly of upper middle class BEARS and (probably) friends of the new owner. It's sad that they've fucked with the old theme and turned it into what it is, it would be honorable of them to change the name and leave a legacy intact and remembered for what it was originally...(but we all know that won't happen.)

nice friendly place

nice guys ,nice staff.......some hot men......bit of leather,boots,tight/torn jeans......all good.

Boycottage du bar?????

Jocelyn Roy a beau chanter les louanges de son bar l'Aigle Noir, S'il ne règle pas le problème de ses barmans insultants et impolis, son bar est voué à la faillite! De plus en plus on entend des plaintes et les barmans (surtout un certain poilu torse-nu) continuent à insulter et à se moquer de leur clientèle. J'ai visité le bar l'après-midi du 25 mai, 2012, (je m'en rappelle car c'était mon anniversaire) et je souffre encore des commentaires cruels du type derrière le bar. Mes amis veulent monter un boycottage du bar...on verra.

Decent leather bar

It's a little on the quiet side, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. Attracts a nice enough crowd and the staff are very pleasant both to deal with and... yes, look at. It is one for the more faithful leather crowd though. Guys with a more casual interest will probably prefer Stud. Would give a 3 and a half rating if I could :)
